HOYO DE MONTERREY EPICURE NO.2 RESERVA COSECHA 2012

Description

This was the first time that Hoyo De Monterrey had been selected to produce a Reserva cigar and they have chosen the Epicure No.2, undoubtedly the brands most popular cigar (other than the Double Corona) to represent it. This mild bodied cigar measurers 4 7/8″ long with a 50 ring gauge, a classic Robusto vitola. Made in extremely limited numbers, with just 5,000 numbered boxes containing 20 cigars each produced for the global market.

All of the tobacco used to produce these remarkable cigars was harvested in 2012. Then, once it had been cured and fermented it was allowed to age in bales for three years before being handed to the torcedor (cigar roller) to make the final cigar. This extra age creates a well rounded, sophisticated and remarkably smooth version of one of Cuba’s most popular cigars.
